Shady Creek

Bathrooms were clean. Easy in and out of the campground. Nice boat launch. Right on the Mississippi

CG has views of Mississippi River with good amenities: electric, tables, fire rings, RR/showers. Play areas, camp volunteers onsite, wood available, boat ramp, shelter. This is a seasonal cg and has a train track upon entering park. Wild Cat Den State Park just up US61.

Army Corp of Engineers campground on the Mississippi River. Good cell reception. We have Verizon. Clean showers and 50 amp sites.

Very enjoyable camping

Wonderful campground along the Mississippi River. Well maintained and very courteous camp host. This is our second stay at this campground.

Great spot on the Mississippi River. Has I known the park beforehand, I would have picked a spot on the river. Still a two hundred foot walk and I am there.

Very clean. I was next to a vault toilet did did use it for a quick #1. Clean and did not have any foul smell.

Level cement pads. Strong Verizon access.

Only negative was that there is a train track real close and a lot of crosses, So you will hear alot of close train horns and they go deep into the night/morning

This is one of the nicest, cleanest campgrounds! Sites are spacious, bathhouse is spotless, campground host who checked us in was so friendly and welcoming! I loved this campground!

Spent 2 nights here. Impressed with the cleanliness of the place. Very quiet at night, even though the place was packed. Close to groceries, fuel. We spent a morning at a Farmers Market in Davenport, about 20 miles away.

This CG is actually on the Iowa side of the Mississippi River and managed by USCOE. Along and off US Highway 22 near Wildcat Den SP and Fairport State Rec Area. Near railroad. Near towns of Buffalo and Muscatine.

Beautiful campground right along the mississippi river

Really enjoyed our stay, sites are large and staggered so you aren’t staring at your neighbors and can enjoy the views. The road leading in was very rutted so take it slow , also due to COVID reservations are required , you can drive up but a sign asks you to make one online or call . Cell service was poor for T Mobile and the wait time for a call was 45 min, we tracked down a camp host who was able to get us registered and was very friendly. As stated water is shared by 4 sites and was 30 ft away . $10 with senior pass otherwise $20 Train only went by once!

Very nice park. Easy to navigate, even with big rigs, which there were planty. Never seen a park where every pad was level like this one. Electric was 30/50 at each site and water was dispersed through out the park, but often too far for a hose to reach. Down side is railroad tracks on one side, which came through at 3:30 am blowing his horns, and the Mississippi on the other, a couple during the night with their loud engines. Although they a neat to watch during the day they can be a nuisance during sleep hours. 

All in all we still very much like this park. With the geezer pass we paid $10 for a primo spot (#14). Would definitley stay here again if in the area.

What a gem we found in Muscatine Iowa. Level poured pad for RV, electric and nice fire pits. Large sites. Clean restrooms and lots of hot water for Shower. Beautiful views of the Mississippi and most of all quiet.

We lucked out and got a last min campsite for 4th of July weekend. Because we didn't plan ahead well we had to take site # 31 which was actually only available because it was canceled that morning. Even though we didn't have a choice it was still a great spot. It was pretty quiet while we were there, a few kids riding bikes but for the most part it was an older population. We could see multiple fire works shows if we walked around the campground with the neighbors across the street putting on a pretty great "amateur" show. 

Our cell phone provider is Sprint and we had zero service. The campground is close to Muscatine if you need to make a run but far enough out to feel like you're really camping. 

The bath houses were very hot and muggy but they were also very clean. We had a water hook up by us but did not realize that we couldn't use it. Got scolded by the Park Ranger and told it was a no no. 

Over all a great stay and I'm positive we will be back.

Nice location to spend time fishing, watching sunsets, and paddle. Near Wild Cat Den State Park.

make your reservations as early as you can the spots go quick! The campground even has a military spot!
